Hey folks. The 'crazy' fairy has been visiting over the past few weeks and I am totally unprepared for this weekend with regards to things that I need. That being said, I will also likely not make until Saturday noon-ish. Clyde, any chance you could drop me an Email (gratefuljones@gmail) or call me (401-626-0846) so we can discuss parts? Thanks. _________________ "A vision without a task is a dream - a task without a vision is drudgery- but a task with vision can change the world."

It is always nice to have Volkstock at our house once a year.
It is my once a year beetle maintenance on Inge and my beetles.
So, Inge takes Joe out for a ride in TWEETY to check the clutch and shifter and I end up finding out that there is an issue with her brakes: (No brake fluid in the resevoir, no fluid able to be bled on the rear 2 tires, a bleeder valve broken off.........Of course this is identified mid day on Sunday while everyone is packing up to head home)
I plan to inspect the SITUATION this week starting tonight to identify the real mystery of where all that fluid has evaporated from. I'll be sure to let you all know what I find out.
